Wendy’s, probably best known for their Frosty dessert treats and heart attack inducing baconators, is coming after McDonald’s, BK, and Taco Bell with their new line-up of breakfast items. Although the breakfast sammies available are in-line with the rest of the fast food offerings, there is one secret weapon Wendy’s provides with every item sold…
Jet Lancer (Switch) Review
The official press release for Jet Lancer features this quote, “Jet Lancer is a frenetic aerial combat game with pixel-perfect dog-fighting, giant robot shooting, and a pulsing soundtrack that’ll put you square in the Danger Zone.” After spending a considerable amount of time with this 2D aerial fighter, I couldn’t agree more. Jet Lancer is…

Why Are These N64 Controllers Special?
After doing some closet cleaning, I stumbled upon a forgotten box of N64 stuff. Inside were some 3rd party memory cards, a couple of RF switches, and broken memory card plastic holders more fragile than Saturn cases. Pushing this junk aside, I found a few N64 controllers. After doing some research, I realize they are…
DAYMARE: 1998 (Xbox One) Review
Originally starting as a fan-made Resident Evil 2 remake, the developers had to shift gears once they found out Capcom was reworking their own IP. Clearly inspired by earlier survival horror titles, DAYMARE: 1998 is a bit of a retro experience for better and worse. Although there are a few playable characters, each one doesn’t…
Fledgling Heroes (Switch) Review
Fledgling Heroes is essentially a Flappy Bird or Jetpack Joyride clone that is level based instead of being an endless runner (although there are endless stages too). Even though there are nearly 100 levels, an over world map, a colorful child-friendly art style, quality animations, and numerous playable birds with their own play style, Fledgling…
ITTA (Switch) Review
ITTA is unique because it merges a few different genres into one final package that impresses. Blending the finesse of a twin-stick shooter with the chaos of a bullet-hell might not be the newest idea but putting it with boss rush gameplay is. Morbid and brief, there is some entertainment to be had but noteworthy…

Ghost Sweeper (Xbox One) Review
Inspired by classic 2D puzzle platformers such as Solomon’s Key and Boulder Dash, Ghost Sweeper is an inexpensive Flash-style title built around navigating a single screen filled with traps, keys, and collectables. The gimmick is the player has the ability to create blocks out of thin air to reach new heights and potentially trap/stun enemies….
Coffee Crisis (PS4) Review
Originally released on the 16-bit Sega Genesis thanks to a successful Kickstart campaign, Coffee Crisis has now been ported to PS4 and Nintendo Switch. Playing as a couple of coffee shoppe owners/brewers, the ridiculous story of fighting off invading aliens with coffee related attacks is going for humor but falls flat. Besides fighting aliens, the…
